The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2563

"Why did you suddenly want to hold a banquet?" Shannon asked after hearing my thoughts.

I laid down my work and met her eyes. “I call it a banquet but it’s actually a thank-you party to thank those who have helped us."

Shannon leaned back into her chair, lost in thought while frowning slightly. "There have indeed been many people who’ve helped us ever since we started Green Orange. But if that’s the case, don’t you have to invite Theo?”

When it came to gratitude, he would be the first person Green Orange should thank.

My expression changed slightly when he was mentioned, but I quickly recovered myself and nodded slowly. “Yes, we have to invite him.”

“Are you planning something again?” Shannon narrowed her big eyes as she looked at me in suspense.

There was more than doubt in her eyes.

I nodded and admitted it, saying, "I’ve discussed this with someone. If I want Nibel to believe me, I must first deal a blow to Grant Corporation. This plan is to convince Theo to work with Silas.”

“It’s not that you can’t do that, but even if you do manage to convince Theo, can you be so sure that Silas will agree to work with him?”

“He definitely will.” My gaze was determined. “Silas has no other choice.”

When Shannon heard this, she was even more confused. “Alright then. Since you already have your plans, I’ll just help you. When do you plan on having it?”

“This weekend.”

Shannon was stunned at that, her eyes widening. “That’s so rushed! We haven’t prepared anything.”

“I’ll prepare with you. The earlier the better anyway.”

Shannon looked at me suspiciously, looking a little nosy. “You’re becoming more and more like Theo recently. Are you two…”

"What do you mean?" There was an obvious change in Delia’s voice. I could imagine her surprised expression at that moment.

My smile gradually deepened as I continued, "I'm not leaving. I’ve thought about it carefully. Why should I give up everything I have now and leave? It's not fair to me."

"Wanda, things have been going too peacefully for you for a long time. Is that why you aren’t afraid of me anymore?” There was a threat in each and every word.

I was indeed no longer afraid and replied in an even calmer tone, “You already got Theo like you wanted. Why should I leave Whaldorf City too? And since you’re pregnant with his child, you can tie him to you. Why are you afraid of me?”

“As if I’m afraid of you. Who do you think you are? We agreed before that you must leave. How can you go back on your word?"

Hearing Delia's increasingly agitated voice, I smiled. "I'm going back on my word, and you can do whatever you want."

After saying that, I hung up the phone.
